Magnesium-Based Materials for Biomedical Applications Gaurav Gautam, Vineet Kumar, Saurabh Sharma, S.K. Chourasiya Advanced Technologies for Sustainable Biomedical Applications, 2025 Magnesium-based materials (alloys and their composites) are emerging as good candidates for a diverse selection in medical applications, including fixation devices for bones, cardiovascular stents, dental implants, screws, pins, and hip joint replacements. This is due to the result of its low density, high specific strength, and modulus of elasticity that closely matches natural bone. Further, their inherent biocompatibility and biomechanical compatibility make them attractive for long-term medical use. However, to understand the potential of magnesium-based materials in medical applications, a comprehensive study of their properties is essential. The current chapter explores the corrosion resistance, mechanical behavior, and biocompatibility of magnesium-based materials with various compositions, highlighting the challenges posed by their tendency to corrode in biological environments. The discussion extends to the impact of surface morphology, environmental conditions, and applied stresses on their performance in the human body. In addition to evaluating these critical factors, this chapter guides in finding an appropriate material for the reinforcement and the optimization of operating parameters to escalate the effectiveness of magnesium-based materials in biomedical applications. By offering insights into the interplay between material properties and biomedical performance, this chapter aims to inform and guide the design and development of next-generation magnesium-based biomaterials for various medical requirements.
A novel technique for automatic quantification of porosities in spray formed warm rolled Al-Si-graphite composite S K Chourasiya, A Si, G Singh, G Gautam, D Singh Materials Research Express, 2019 Microstructural features mainly porosities affect the mechanical and tribological properties significantly in spray deposited composite materials. These make undesirable microstructural features to develop the components for automobile and aerospace. Secondary processes like rolling, extrusion and forging generally minimize these porosities results improve the mechanical and tribological properties. The proper analysis of the porosities in the spray deposited composites is difficult. It requires material researchers or scientist who identifies and measures the porosity manually, but this process takes the more time, labor and exhibits poor repeatability. Additionally, some image processing tools are also available to analyze the porosities in which ImageJ exhibits great importance. But, it does not distinguish between the inclusions and porosities. This paper overcomes the challenges of actual porosity by proposing a new program made in MATLAB. The image processing algorithm is developed to isolate the inclusions and porosities in the microstructural features. MATLAB plays a crucial role in scanning both the scanning elonton microscope (SEM) and backscattered electrons (BSE) images and subtracts the area of inclusion phases from the total detected dark phase and thus produced another fresh image with only the actual porosity. With this method, the porosity of spray formed warm rolled Al-Si-Gr composite is investigated under different rolling reduction (20, 40, 60 and 80%) and verified experimentally by Archimedes principle (ASTM G99-95a). The proposed technique used to measure the porosities may improve the speed and repeatability of the results.
